Default Turn signal too fast.

Driving home from a party tonight, noticed my right turn signal going about twice as fast as my left (normal). Just started doing it tonight. The flasher on the dash blinks twice as fast as the left, and so does the rear and front turn signals. Has to be whatever controls the turn signal right?

What could be the problem here?

Could be cause one of your left signals (front or back) is out. Happens on my girlfriend's car all the time, cause her front signals (both, lol) are both out.

yea, when a bulb goes out it flashes really fast.one of your bulbs is probably out. just turn on the signal and look around the car at each light and see wich is out. get the bulb # off the bulb or outa your owners manual, go get a new one at walmart or autozone or somehtin, and install the new bulb. and try not to touch the glass on the new bulb with your fingers when you put it in. they are said to ware out faster if you do.

It means that either the bulb is out, or the control modual that controles the turning signal is going out.
